Red and black.Where`s the white coming from?Will there be white anywhere else on the truck?It`s not about which upholstery you like the most,it`s about what goes best with the color scheme.What color would the rest of the interior be?I like red w/red interior.I think red vinyl w/red`n`black houndstooth would look great.

The interior is all black other than what's normally painted body color. Inititially I thought the same thing, but then realized that there are lots of red Camaro's (or Mustang's) with white vinyl seats and a black carpet, etc. Of course you'd never use white carpet, so I thought this might work and look really good and the more I think about it, the more I might do it.

Exactly my thoughts. This would bring the interior to life rather than dull it down with dark colors.
